Such a good day.

Today was great.  Although I had to work, I got to come home to my beautiful Madi.  That's what gets me through my days.  I always know I have her to come home to.  Even if I have a bad day, as soon as I see her the bad day goes right out the window.

I realized the other day how big she is getting.  You never listen to people when they tell you "they grow up so fast."  Well I sure believe them now!  It's crazy how fast they grow up and how big they get!  It's so sad.  Bittersweet.  I love seeing her grow and getting to see all of her milestones, but at the same time I want her to stay my sweet little girl forever.  But I know reality won't let her.  Hopefully she will stay sweet at least :)  I hope we can always have a special bond and she will be able to tell me everything when she grows up and we can be close.  I sometimes wonder what she will be when she grows up and how she will be in school.  Hopefully not like her mother was in high school.  I made a lot of mistakes and regret things but that I believe has made me who I am today and I'm glad that I had those learning experiences.  I guess I just thought I knew everything, but really should have listened to my parents at times.  But every teen is like that...Right????  O well..The past is the past and you can only go forward from there.  I am so happy where my life is at today and I wouldn't change it for the world.  I have a wonderful husband, beautiful daughter, awesome friends, and a great family who I love very much and who loves us right back!  Couldn't be happier!
